Subscribing with Feedly in Android doesn't work #38

Hi,

I can't seem to get the subtome to work with my Android device (samsung galaxy note 10.1 and Google Chrome). When I click the Feedly's button in the dialog (see screenshot http://db.tt/s6lPfsjt) the browser jumps to some url and then immediately redirects to Feedly's android front page (see screenshot http://db.tt/ujcE59p7).

I have Feedly installed as a separate app, but the feed didn't appear there.

Hum. I guess we need to ask the folks at Feedly why this redirect does not work :/

The problem's going to be that Feedly's Android app registers to handle all URLs beginning with http://feedly.com, cloud.feedly.com, or whatever, but doesn't properly map them to views within the app.

It should be simple enough for them to fix, and I imagine they'd want to fix it.

Indeed, I just tests a subscription from my android phone and Feedly redirect to the "download app" page :(

Hey, @feedly, @kireet, I believe that's an easy fix :) Why do you redirect to the front page on mobile?

We are trying to work on the deep linking: when someone is accessing feedly on Android, we dumbly redirect to the store. The goal over time is to 1) detect if the user has feedly installed and if so open the feed in feedly using the feedly:// and 2) if the user does not have the app installed, let them browse the feed on the web and follow that feed on the web.

We have some of this work implemented in v18. We started to implement a feedly:// protocol handler. The rest will come in v19 and v20.

Sorry it is taking so long. We are a small start up and have a lot more on our plate than we can chew on.
